Sir Robert S. Ball’s book ’Great Astronomers’ is an interesting look at the lives and accomplishments of some of the most important people in the history of astronomy. From ancient times to the 19th century, the book talks about the lives of famous scientists like Ptolemy, Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, and Herschel. Ball’s writing style is interesting and easy to understand, which makes it easy to understand difficult ideas about the universe. He talks about a lot of different things, from what the old Greeks found to Kepler’s groundbreaking work and the laws of planetary motion to how Galileo invented the telescope and Herschel found Uranus. The book talks about not only what these great astronomers did in science, but also their personal lives, problems, and successes.
